Descending Pitch

I participated in an incredible panel called "First Contact" lead by Lawrence Schoen and Stanley Schmidt (executive editor of Analog). We split into two different species, invented our own languages and had a first contact situation.

Napping an hour after the panel the story Descending Pitch formed fully in my mind, but I'm too tired to write it all tonight. I got 357 words down before I set it aside and passed out for the night.
